The author is the son of Richard Clarke, 1711-1795.

Found affairs in Quebec quite precarious "for the adherents to the Royal Cause" and so sailed to Bristol with his brother. Mentions the forces to be sent to the colonies under Howe and Burgoyne. Wishes to learn more about the report of a repulse of the Provincials at Quebec.
